Following an extended Off-Broadway run at Second Stage last season, Fierstein’s landmark work Torch Song Trilogy returns to Broadway this fall (now titled Torch Song) for the first time since winning dual Tony Awards for Best Play in 1982.

The cast of the Torch Song revival also took part in the tribute, including Urie, Mercedes Ruehl, Ward Horton, Jack DiFalco, Roxanna Hope Radja, and Michael Hsu Rosen.

The celebration was directed by Fierstein’s Tony Award-winning Hairspray collaborator Jerry Mitchell, and written by Tony nominee Chad Beguelin.

The event was co-chaired by Robert Greenblatt, Richie Jackson, and Jordan Roth with Honorary Chairs Cyndi Lauper and Joe Mantello.

The attendees posed with puppies who are all adoptable through the North Shore Animal League America.
